Kuldeep has also had extensive interactions with senior regulators worldwide and is highly sought after for his deep understanding of macroeconomic environments and their implications for financial markets.
He has actively advocated for the development of capital markets through his appointments to industry bodies, including serving as an ExCo member with the Asia Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (ASIFMA) and the Treasury Markets Association of Hong Kong.
In his new role at MBSB Group, Kuldeep will oversee the Group’s Wholesale businesses across MBSB Bank and MIDF, which include Investment Banking, Financial Markets, Corporate Banking, and Asset Management.
